Best gaming headsets for 200 dollars is the Monolith M560 Planars from Monoprice they are easy as crap to drive you just need a basic amp if you need one at all . You want to hear foot steps these are the all around king for music,movies, and games.

I don't have any experience with these but I highly doubt they are properly driven without an amp. Planars are always power hogs to get the best sound out of them. even with conventional drivers I believe you start seeing benefits around 40 ohm especially with closed back.

Well these are easy to drive i run them on 0 gain on my micca origen+ and i run them on low gain with my O2 amp easily. And if you are comparing these to the mark 3s dont those stupid things are just inefficient and take too much power to run them for what you get.

https://www.radsone.com/earstudio I'd be interested in a drop of these. There are so many nice headphones on Massdrop. What could be better than a nice DAC and being able to take them wireless.
